Oh MJ - what can one say at this news?  I am thinking of you and your family!!  Send lots of good healing vibes as well as soy products and dried eel.  Massage and reiki would be an ideal therapuetic companion to any drug therapy. Call me if you need anything.

Hey babe - well we are not really sure what to say to each other at the moment - we are all trying to be positive I guess - just knowing I have such an amazing support group here and at home helps. Thanks.

I’ve been through this. If in doubt, on a sleepless night, don’t hesitate to email me, if you think it could help.

Oh, honey. I’m so sorry. I’m here for you 24/7. Just call when you need to talk; if the trains are running, I’ll come down for tea and hugs.

thanks guys

Big hugs and lots of shoulders and helping hands, whenever u need them XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

Speechless with sorrow for you and your loved ones. But we hope that in sharing your sorrow, we would help make it more bearable. So if you ever run out of hugs or friends to call upon(which you wont), there’s always more here.  Much much love and affection from your fan(s). 

I’ve been reading your blog for a while as a lurker and I realise that I’m just a stranger to you, but I just wanted to say that I’m so so sorry. :( I wish you and your dad lots of luck.

I’m really sorry to hear about this news which must be scary for you, but it is quite moving to know that he is standing up to this, refusing to let it take him over. I am in the habit these days of praying at shrines whenever I can, so I said a few words for your father on Sunday and Monday.

Saaaa.
It must feel so strange to so far away from him now. You might want to free up your schedule in the next months to spent some time with him. I wish I did that when lost my father a few years ago while on my 15th year here in Japan. Since it was a ‘surprise’, even my wife comments that, “it’s not like he’s even gone; we’re just AWAY.”
Make time.
